awk Adding a Period at the end of a line
I started venturing in learning the art of using AWK/GAWK and wanted to simply added a period from line #11 to line #28 or to the end of the file if there is data. So for example:

Code:
11 	Centos.NM                         
12	dojo1                 
13	redhat.5.5.32Bit       
14	redhat.6.2.64Bit       
15	mandriva.9.2.32Bit     
16	RELEASE_WIN2003       
17	SaintBox-Ubuntu-x64     
18	SAINTexploitVM-x86      
19	SAINTVM-x64             
20	Ubuntu-12.04.x64        
21	bigbadwolf.x64          
22	WIN2003PATCHED          
23	WIN2003UNPATCH          
24	WIN-IQF3U12CJA5         
25	XPSP3PATCHED            
26	XPPROUNPATCHED          
27	WIN2012                 
28	WIN8_141

to

Code:
11 	Centos.NM.                         
12	dojo1.                 
13	redhat.5.5.32Bit.       
14	redhat.6.2.64Bit.       
15	mandriva.9.2.32Bit.     
16	RELEASE_WIN2003.       
17	SaintBox-Ubuntu-x64.     
18	SAINTexploitVM-x86.      
19	SAINTVM-x64.             
20	Ubuntu-12.04.x64.        
21	bigbadwolf.x64.          
22	WIN2003PATCHED.          
23	WIN2003UNPATCH.          
24	WIN-IQF3U12CJA5.         
25	XPSP3PATCHED.            
26	XPPROUNPATCHED.          
27	WIN2012.                 
28	WIN8_141.

This is what I had so far:

Code:
awk '{ NR==11,NR==28 print $0 "." }' < test_file 
awk: { NR==11,NR==28 print $0 "." }
awk:         ^ syntax error
awk: { NR==11,NR==28 print $0 "." }
awk:                 ^ syntax error

??

cupsaddsmb

cupsaddsmb(8)							    Apple Inc.							     cupsaddsmb(8)

NAME

       cupsaddsmb - export printers to samba for windows clients

SYNOPSIS

       cupsaddsmb [ -H samba-server ] [ -U samba-user[%samba-password] ] [ -h cups-server[:port] ] [ -v ] -a
       cupsaddsmb [ -H samba-server ] [ -U samba-user[%samba-password] ] [ -h cups-server[:port] ] [ -v ] printer [ ... printer ]

DESCRIPTION

       cupsaddsmb exports printers to the SAMBA software (version 2.2.0 or higher) for use with Windows clients. Depending on the SAMBA configura-
       tion, you may need to provide a password to export the printers. This program requires the Windows printer driver files described below.

OPTIONS

       cupsaddsmb supports the following options:

       -H samba-server
	    Specifies the SAMBA server which defaults to the CUPS server.

       -U samba-user[%samba-password]
	    Specifies the SAMBA print admin username which defaults to your current username. If the username contains a  percent  (%)	character,
	    then the text following the percent is treated as the SAMBA password to use.

       -a
	    Exports all known printers. Otherwise only the named printers are exported.

       -h cups-server[:port]
	    Specifies a different CUPS server to use.

       -v
	    Specifies that verbose information should be shown. This is useful for debugging SAMBA configuration problems.

SAMBA CONFIGURATION

       cupsaddsmb  uses  the new RPC-based printing support in SAMBA 2.2.x to provide printer drivers and PPD files to Windows client machines. In
       order to use this functionality, you must first configure the SAMBA smb.conf(5) file to support printing through CUPS and provide a printer
       driver download share, as follows:

	   [global]
	    load printers = yes
	    printing = cups
	    printcap name = cups

	   [printers]
	    comment = All Printers
	    path = /var/spool/samba
	    browseable = no
	    public = yes
	    guest ok = yes
	    writable = no
	    printable = yes

	   [print$]
	    comment = Printer Drivers
	    path = /etc/samba/drivers
	    browseable = yes
	    guest ok = no
	    read only = yes
	    write list = root

       This configuration assumes a FHS-compliant installation of SAMBA; adjust the [printers] and [print$] share paths accordingly on your system
       as needed.

MICROSOFT POSTSCRIPT DRIVERS FOR WINDOWS

       The base driver for Windows 2000 and higher is the Microsoft PostScript driver, which is available on any system running  Windows  2000	or
       higher  in  the	%WINDIR%SYSTEM32SPOOLDRIVERSW32X863  folder  for  32-bit drivers and %WINDIR%SYSTEM32SPOOLDRIVERSX643 folder for
       64-bit drivers.

       The CUPS printer driver is preferred over the Microsoft driver since it supports the page-label, job-billing,  and  job-hold-until  options
       fully  on  all printers. However, currently only Windows 2000 and higher is supported by the Microsoft driver, so you will also need to get
       the Adobe driver to support Windows 95, 98, and Me clients. The Adobe and Microsoft drivers for Windows 2000 are identical.

       Once you have extracted the driver files, copy the 32-bit drivers to the /usr/share/cups/drivers directory and the 64-bit  drivers  to  the
       /usr/share/cups/drivers/x64 directory exactly as named below:

	   [Windows 2000 and higher]
	   ps5ui.dll
	   pscript.hlp
	   pscript.ntf
	   pscript5.dll

       Note:  Unlike  Windows, case is significant - make sure that you use the lowercase filenames shown above, otherwise cupsaddsmb will fail to
       export the drivers.

CUPS POSTSCRIPT DRIVERS FOR WINDOWS

       cupsaddsmb can use the CUPS v6 PostScript printer driver for Windows, which is available for download from the CUPS web site.

       The CUPS printer driver is preferred over the Adobe and Microsoft drivers since it supports the page-label, job-billing, and job-hold-until
       options	fully  on  all printers. However, currently only Windows 2000 and higher is supported by the CUPS driver, so you will also need to
       get the Adobe driver to support Windows 95, 98, and Me clients.

       Once you have extracted the driver files, copy the 32-bit drivers to the /usr/share/cups/drivers directory and the 64-bit  drivers  to  the
       /usr/share/cups/drivers/x64 directory exactly as named below:

	   [Windows 2000 and higher]
	   cups6.inf (from www.cups.org)
	   cups6.ini (from www.cups.org)
	   cupsps6.dll (from www.cups.org)
	   cupsui6.dll (from www.cups.org)
	   ps5ui.dll (from your Windows system)
	   pscript.hlp (from your Windows system)
	   pscript.ntf (from your Windows system)
	   pscript5.dll (from your Windows system)

       Note:  Unlike  Windows, case is significant - make sure that you use the lowercase filenames shown above, otherwise cupsaddsmb will fail to
       export the drivers.

ADOBE POSTSCRIPT DRIVERS FOR WINDOWS 95, 98, AND ME
       cupsaddsmb can use the Adobe PostScript printer driver for Windows 95, 98, and ME, which are available for download from the Adobe web site
       (http://www.adobe.com).

       The Adobe driver does not support the page-label, job-billing, or job-hold-until options.

       Once  you have installed the driver on a Windows system, copy the following files to the /usr/share/cups/drivers directory exactly as named
       below:

	   [Windows 95, 98, and Me]
	   ADFONTS.MFM
	   ADOBEPS4.DRV
	   ADOBEPS4.HLP
	   ICONLIB.DLL
	   PSMON.DLL

       Note: Unlike Windows, case is significant - make sure that you use the UPPERCASE filenames shown above, otherwise cupsaddsmb will  fail	to
       export the drivers.

KNOWN ISSUES

       Getting the full set of Windows driver files should be easier.
